"Chapter 10: The Truth
The next day at school, Marko, Haillie, Emily, & Levi met under they tree.
“Let’s ask Mrs. Azrcy if she really is a cuckoo clock,” said Levi. “I’ll ask.”
When they got to class, they all stood in front of Mrs. Azrcy’s desk.
“Well...a...Mrs. Azrcy...are...you...a...uh...cuckoo clock?” asked Levi.
“Why of course not!” said Mrs. Azrcy.
“Mrs. Azrcy,” said Marko. “You’re...TALKING!”
“Why I am,” said Mrs. Azrcy.
“You must like writing notes,” said Haillie.
“Yes,” said Mrs. Azrcy. “I do.”
“And have you not noticed your name,” said Haillie. “If you look at it closely, you’ll see the letters spell crazy.”
“Yes,” said Marko. He used his wordball power to show. He took his wordball & threw it at the air.
Levi used his unscrambling power to show that.
“So that’s why you thought I was a cuckoo clock,” said Mrs. Azrcy.
“We thought since u lived in that crazy house, you were a cuckoo clock!” said Marko. “And...a...Mrs. Azrcy. We’re the prowlers.”
“Oh,” said Mrs. Azrcy. She imagined she was making a prowler.
Prowlers Marko & Emily
Mrs. Azrcy laughed. Marko laughed. Everyone laughed.
“Cuckoo clocks don’t become teachers!” giggled Levi.THE END"

"Chapter 9: The Chat
The tap they felt was Mrs. Azrcy. She pushed them to Mr More’s office. She put her hands on her hips.
“Look what you did,” she [Emily] whispered to Ricardo.
“She’s the second grade bully,” he thought.
Mrs. Azrcy dragged both of them into the office. Then she left. Emily & Ricardo day there staring at each other.
Just then, Mr. Mores came in looking at them. He started grouching at him [Ricardo]. And Emily.
“HE STARTED IT!” hollered Emily, pointing at Ricardo.
“But that’s because she wasn’t smiling in her school picture,” said Ricardo.
“I don’t care who’s fault it is,” said Mr. Mores. “I am going to call your parents.”
“Ha!” wailed Emily and Ricardo.
When school was over, the Nalãns grounded Ricardo from teaching Spanish Lessons. &. made him apologize Emily. The Lulbys grounded Emily & made her apologize to Ricardo.

"Chapter 8: Fight
“Here let me,” said Ricardo.
“No,” said Emily.
“But you ain’t smiling,” said Ricardo. He took the yearbook out of Emily’s hand.
A big man came along with “The Giant Yearbook”.
Emily pointed.
“Give me my yearbook!” screamed Emily.
“No way,” said Ricardo. “I am going to tear this part of your yearbook out!”
Emily grabbed her yearbook. But Ricardo’s hands were still on it. Ricardo pushed Emily’s hands off. But, before Ricardo could rip the page of her class out, he felt a tap on his shoulder. And so did Emily.

"Chapter 6: The Basement
“Prove Mrs. Azrcy isn’t a cuckoo,” Haillie told Marko & Emily. They were on their way home.
‘I’ll be glad to prove it to you,” said Emily. She poked Marko. “And you’re coming with me!”
That night Marko & Emily snuck out of their houses & went to Mrs. Azrcy’s house. “ Marko got there first. He waited for 10 minutes.
“Boring,” said Marko. Marko thought, Yo hope madre y padre y Ricardo didn’t see yo do that.
When Emily arrived, Marko asked her a question, “Where have you been? I’ve been waiting for 10 minutes.”
“Shut up and I’ll tell you,” she grouched. She took a big breath. “I had to wait for my dad to sack out.”
“Let’s just go to the house,” Marko said.
The 2 friends ran into the house. They went to the basement and saw tuns of cuckoo clocks. And dolls. Then, this big box Marko saw was long. They tried to open it. But then they heard a noise.
“Let’s get out of here,” Marko said nervously. They ran out of the house very fast.
“Ha! Ha!” they breathed.
Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Ooo! Ooo!
They ran across the street where they were safe, They saw a shadow in front of the house front door!
Ooo! Ooo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
“Oh my gosh,” said Marko & Emily at the same time.

"Chapter 5:
The next morning at school, Emily, Haillie, Marko & Levi met on the playground. When the bell rang, Marko was walking & stared at his feet. He thought, Mrs. Azrcy is probably a green bird. She was late for the students next morning. Marko & Haillie were the first ones there. They thought Mrs. Azrcy may be allergic to pollen. They were there before Mrs. Azrcy, so they thought they might give it a try.
When Emily arrived, she was surprised, “Phew! Something stinks! Who had spaghetti for breakfast?!”
“What in the world?” said Levi as he arrived.
Their rich friend, Caleb, came in & said, “P.U. I smell something.
When Mrs. Azrcy arrived, she started sneezing her head of. She started writing on a note to the class. (The apple juice had not dried out.)
There is only 1 thing making me sneeze. I just cannot imagine how pollen has gotten into this room.
Haillie sucked in her breath real fast. While Marko started digging through books in his desk.
“We did it!” they both blurted.

Levi got the janitor & he sweeped up the room. Then Mrs. Azrcy went in to the girls bathroom. Everyone followed.
“Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Ooo! Ooo!” It sounded like a bird ghost.
“Go in & see,” Marko told Emily.
“No way,” said Emily.
Marko grinned. Before Emily could say another word, Marko pushed her into the bathroom.
“AH!” Emily screamed. The door slammed shut. Then, Mrs. Azrcy came out dressed like a green bird. Emily came out panting hard.
“Cuckoo! Cuckoo!”
Emily made the cuckoo sign at Mrs. Azrcy. Emily pointed and laughed.

"Chapter 4: Sneaking & Spying
“Well, I’ll spy on Mrs. Azrcy,” said Marko. “I think she’s a cuckoo clock.”
When they got to school, Marko, Haillie, Emily, & Levi, met on the playground. “I promised Ricardo I’d spy on Mrs. Azrcy,” said Marko. “I’ll say she’s a cuckoo clock.”
“I see Mrs. Azrcy,” said Emily.
She gave each of them yearbooks.
“All ready,” asked Haillie
They each looked at their pictures. In the second grade section Mrs. Dalipire’s 2nd Grade Class Emily Lulby Haillie Mart Marko Nalan Levi Pappal. Marko drew a picture in his journal with Mrs. Azrcy sign a yearbook.
Hour One: Yearbooks All Ready?
“IT’S THE MIDDLE OF September & WE HAVE YEARBOOK! HOW COME,” screamed Emily.
Mrs. Azrcy then wrote something down for Emily. It was a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long note for Emily to take home for her parents.
“Oh great,” wailed Emily. “A huge & long note.”
“What does it say?” asked Marko as they went into the class.
But Emily didn’t answer, She just read the note herself.
Dear Mr & Mrs. Lulby, Emily screamed outside before school today. She screamed she thought it was stupid since we all got them in September. Screaming isn’t allowed inside or outside at Bigger Elementary, Emily also has a hard time controlling herself in class, please talk about this with her.
From, Mrs. Azrcy.
Emily was a new student to Bigger Elementary, & she didn’t know that they got yearbooks in September.
For the rest of the day, Marko drew pictures of Mrs. Azrcy:
Hour Two: Throwing papers
Hour Three: Out for recess
Hour Four: Flying Food.
Hour Five: O. F. R.
Hour Six: Out the door.
Hour Seven: Sneezing"

"Chapter 3: Cuckoo Clocks
Later, on their way home, Emily, Hallie, Levi, Marko & Ricardo talked about Mrs. Azrcy.
“What does she look like,” asked Ricardo.
“She has red hair, tan skin, & red eyes,” said Marko.
“Then they saw a house that was shaped like a cuckoo clock.
“Someone like Mrs. Azrcy would want to live in that black house,” said Hailie. And sure enough, she was right.
Ricardo saw Mrs. Azrcy and made the cuckoo sign at her. Mrs. Azrcy pointed at her house & dragged Marko & Emily in.
“I wonder what will happen to them,” said Ricardo. “Let’s take a peek inside the window.”
Haillie, Levi and Ricardo peeled inside the window. And then they saw a bunch of cuckoo clocks.
“Look at that! See? Your teacher is crazy,” said Ricardo.
Ohhs & ahhs they kept blabbing.
“Muñecas are en there,” said Ricardo.
“And cuckoo clocks,” said Haillie.
“Look at that! There’s a cuckoo clock on top of the window,” whispered Levi. “Our teacher is crazy.”
“Oh, sí it is,” replied Ricardo. “I’m glad I’m not in that class.”
“Room Eight is going crazy about this teacher,” commented Haillie. “Mrs. Dalipire was better.”
“My teacher, in Room Nine, is a vampire,” said Ricardo.
Just then, Mrs. Azrcy pushed opened the door and threw Marko & Emily outside.
“As I said, my teacher, Mrs. Eripilad, is a vampire.”
“When Mrs. Azrcy passes out papers she throws them,” said Levi. “I hate my teacher.”
When Marko & Ricardo said that when they got home got home, they said they would draw pictures of Mrs. Azrcy.

"Chapter 2: Crazy People
At recess time, Marko, Levi, Haillie, & Emily sat on rusty old swings.
“This teacher is so crazy,” wailed Haillie. “I bet she has a collection of cuckoo clocks.”
“And haven’t you noticed how she never says anything?” said Marko. “Mrs. Azrcy’s name is crazy,” said Marko, hopping off his swing. “I bet she’s in love with muñecas, that means dolls in Spanish.”
Mario’s twin brother, Ricardo, heard the news & ran over to the swings.
“Marko,” said Ricardo. “Did tu get a new teacher for your class?” He paused. “Or did Emily.”
“Um...uh...,” Emily stammered.
“Sí, she did,” said Marko. “She is the class bully, tu know.”
“Oh Emily Lulby, ya gonna be sorry,” said Ricardo, grouchily.

"Here is the first chapter of my book called the Cuckoo Teacher!
Chapter 1: Mrs. Azrcy
A teacher walked into a room called Room Eight. Her name was Mrs. Dalipire. Everyone in her class was bad, bad, bad! They had all thrown paper wads or shot spitballs. She was about to take attendance when her desk’s drawer was full of apple juice.
“Ugh!” wailed Mrs. Dalipire. “I can’t stand it anymore!” She walked out & said, “Ugh, I’m sure glad that’s over.”
“She was cuckoo too do that,” said a student named Emily. “I wonder what new teacher we’ll get next.”
“Whatever,” said another student named Haillie.
“I think we should get a male wrestler,” said one named Levi. “Do you hear footsteps?”
“I do,” said another named Marko.
Just after they said that, their princible, Mr. Mores, walked into the room with a lady who was sticking her tongue out at the students, plugging her ears, & flapping her hands up and down.
“Class,” said Mr. Mores. “I’d like you to meat your new teacher Mrs. Azrcy.”
She kept doing her crazy move untill Emily, Haillie, Levi & Marko. yelled: “That’s enough!”
“Where’s the lesson, Mrs. Acrzy,” said Emily, tapping her foot.
She stopped doing her crazy move, She started throwing papers from the top desk drawer. When they were done, she pointed at the door which they thought ment: “Out for recess.” She started doing that crazy move again.
